Find your way to the 'self' - the divinity within you!

Hey, anyone out there to become a "HINDU" or get converted to "HINDUISM"! This is the address of my shop -

http://www.geocities.com/agyat_theunknown

Interested????

First about the transliteration - There are others like ajnata etc. But, you understood the right word and that's important! What is understood is more important than what is said. In whichever way you look it, we are actually eating the fruit. Even when we are talking -

'We are actually meditating upon the understanding which will guide us to know the God's glory which is there in three worlds - physical, mental and spiritual.' - including me and you!

When I/you say - Namaste! It does not mean I respect you (as a person). It means I respect the divine within you i.e. this to remind me/you about the divinity within, so that we behave accordingly...

Namaste! (I bow to the divine within you)...

And you are omnipresent!

What is understood is more important than what is said! Everyone is free to interprete and understand in their own way. Conflicts rise when we start forcing others to understand in our own way. The very message is lost in those conflicts.

This is all for better understanding...

riih.qarojamahoamaan,

If, 'We meditate upon the understanding which guides me to know the God's glory which is there in three worlds - physical, mental and spiritual.', do we need to explain or do we need explanations?

Anyway, if you have gone through 'Mindspace', then you will be surprised to know that I have written that before knowing the meaning of this mantra.

I do not need to go into the grammar, I cannot go into a debate, if I have the understanding.

If understood, it also says the divine is within us, as we cannot separate ourselves from the three worlds!

About incarnations - Krishna, Rama, Jesus, Buddha etc. were not born as God's incarnations/messengers. They were considered or believed to be the incarnates/messengers by the way of their teachings/wisdom/knowledge. Their understanding of the three worlds have transcended them to that level.

...you say "You are going to die only once". Are you sure on that? What makes you believe a human being dies once only? If soul separates from body, then why can't a soul join a body again?

Yes, I am only going to die only once. I am sure about this. I do not know about my previous life and I can only speculate about my future life. For me soul has a little different meaning. The soul and the spirit are different. Spirit is something beyond body and mind. It is pure consciousness. I guess, you meant spirit in your question. Even if I know about the spirit leaving a body and joining it again. How can I be sure about it? How can I remember without mind?

I think this is clear enough...

This place is not bad to be in a 'satsanga', if you are little careful about your understanding...

Please use the link below to find why I have put this here...

you won't find him here!

But, you can surely find him there!

Is there anything more that I can do to improve my prayer?

Just have focus while praying... i.e. close your eyes, keep repeating your prayer without any other thoughts in mind.

Om Bhur Bhuvah Suvah Thath Savithur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayath

Om: The primeval sound

Bhur: the physical world

Bhuvah: the mental world

Thath: That; God; transcendental Paramatma

Savithur: the Sun, Creator, Preserver

Devasya: resplendent,supreme Lord

Dheemahi: we meditate upon

Dhiyo: the intellect,understanding

Yo: May this light

Nah: our

Prachodayath: enlighten,guide,inspire

Om! We meditate upon the intellect/understanding (as the light) which may enlighten/guide/inspire us to know the luster/effulgence of the most adorable/enchanting, resplendent/supreme Lord/Creator/Preserver (as the God or Sun) that shines in the three worlds - physical, mental and spiritual.

Can anyone help me to understand the beliefs of Hinduism better?

Who can you find better than your 'self'?

By the way, good post by Eternal Law. Very well written by - Dr. Karan Singh. Surely, a nice read...

Do our faith/belief/understanding/knowledge/wisdom of/from/upon Gita or Hinduism depend on these kind of quotes?

If what is debated upon (the quote of Einstein) is true - does it glorify Gita or Hinduism more?

If it is false - does it take away anything from what Gita or Hinduism is?

I personally, don't think so...

Understand your mindspace...

God is within you.

Iswaar aapake bhitar hai.

Your understanding of God is God.

Iswaar ke baare mein aapaka samajh hi Iswaar hai.

Namaste!

Namaste means - I bow to the divine within you.

Acceptance cannot happen without understanding. And understanding can never be forced upon someone. It can only be cultivated by you. None can help you for this cultivation. Only you have the right to cultivate it in the field which is your own mind. You will have to find you own means and ways to do this cultivation!

How do you understand incarnation is what can or cannot bring acceptance to you? It all depends upon you, as an individual!

God's incarnation as understood and accepted by me -

None of incarnations of God has been preconceived. Krishna, Rama etc. are considered incarnations of God only after their life and teachings from them where understood. In 'Hinduism', it is believed that each and every person has divine within him. When this divinity is understood, it gets manifested to the outer world through the understanding, knowledge and wisdom of that person.

There is a big difference when you see a person as God himself and as a messenger of God. When you find divinity within you or see yourself as God, you become responsible for the entire world through your actions and deeds. You can never run away from taking responsibility for your actions and deeds by say - 'I am not God or a sage, I am just an ordinary person'.

When you get inspired from a person, it means you are inspired by his understanding, knowledge and wisdom. You see him as a God and wish to become like him. This inspiration comes from within as a reflection from your own understanding. You need to keep the reflector as clean and polished as possible. Its all upto you!

Same applies to scriptures being divine. If you have the understanding only then you will find or see divinity in the scriptures.

If you use your excess money to serve needy people, you get something in return. You get the joy and bliss of service. It gives you satisfaction, which in turn brings happiness for you. But, the service should be anonymous, otherwise you might become arrogant or egoistic and the whole purpose will fail...

Despite its phenomenal religious and philosophical

literature and its accomplishments in the arts and

sciences, Hinduism suffers from a poor image. That's

because too many ordinary Hindus are not drawn to

what is great and beautiful, but prefer what is weird

and wacky.

If you think 'Hinduism suffers from a poor image', better think again?

As you write - 'Despite its phenomenal religious and philosophical literature and its accomplishments in the arts and sciences'. Where are you putting your focus? How can you decide for others - 'what is great and beautiful' and 'what is weird and wacky'.

'Hinduism' can never be forced. It can only be understood!

Poster 11 says a circular dot makes you calm and a

vertical line makes you aggressive. And he(or she)

describes a method of proving it to yourself. Poster 13

says the dot tends to create a focal point on her face

whatever that means. Both see the dot as something

good, wholesome and attractive.

These two prove exactly my point. See post 12 above.

Despite its phenomenal religious and philosophical

literature and its accomplishments in the arts and

sciences, Hinduism suffers from a poor image. That's

what is great and beautiful, but prefer what is weird

and wacky.

Do you want to go into the depth of those statements?

If yes, then please explain your opinion first...

Good understanding is a prerequisite for dharma. Money can only fulfil your material needs/desires. It can never buy dharma for you.

Dharma can only be cultivated through understanding. It is your spiritual need... Ofcourse, if you understand!

Know everything and decide by yourself...

Looking for a balanced approach for better living?

Understand your mind. Look within yourself!
